Three CBS-Owned CW Stations Add Nightly News

In order to claim some political money, they will need to generate a rating point. Hash marks won't cut it.

...Following that, WKBD did air an in-house morning newscast that launched in 2011 and was cancelled in 2012.
The morning show launched on WWJ-TV in May 2009, as a collaborative effort with the Detroit Free Press.First Forecast Mornings with Syma Chowdrey, Randy Bihrdo and ?
Anchor was Mike Brookbank (now in Cleveland), a TV reporter employed by the Free Press, not the station. After management/ownership changes at the Freep caused them to withdraw from producing the news segment, full production of FFM reverted to WWJ-TV, which hired a news producer, brought in anchor Syma Chowdry (now at WXYZ). Randy Bhirdo did traffic, weather was at first by Lori Pinson and later Jill Washburn (both now at WJBK). Later on during the run of the show, it went to 4 hours, 5-7a on WWJ then WKBD from 7-9am.

So the return of Emery King to local news has a zero percent chance at happening with this?

Isn’t Emory King a tad old by now?

This is an epic fail.
I’ll give this a few months. They will get slaughtered by Fox 2

Who did they wrangle in to be their MMJ?
It’s definitely bad but I have to say... Karen Carter makes Hank Winchester’s lisp look like the queens English... I hadn’t bothered to see the 11pm weather hit since Maddus retired. Everu S is a TH... Yikes.
It says 10-11pm on my guide but at 1028 it appears to be over...

Re: Three CBS-Owned CW Stations Add Nightly News
Ah, the guide doesn’t differentiate I guess... this is weird. April Morton apparently was at WNEM previously. Maybe she’s the one and only MMJ they took on, her writing was actually not that bad.mtburb wrote: ↑Wed Jan 22, 2020 10:32 pmThe second half-hour is just a repeat of the first half-hour.Rate This wrote: ↑Wed Jan 22, 2020 10:29 pmWho did they wrangle in to be their MMJ?

Re: Three CBS-Owned CW Stations Add Nightly News
As a Dish subscriber I was able to double box the two shows. I had 50 on the left and 38 on the right.
They're both weak as they are limited by just the half hour. 50 had less than 15 minutes of news with what I will call "fill" for the rest of the half hour. The weather segment was OK but don't look for sport scores. I didn't expect the repeat on 50 on the half hour either. At least the news talent was lively. One thing I liked on 50s show was that everything was cut tight and all footage shot on location the camera was on sticks so all shots were steady.
If I had to guess I think the CW show to three stations is an experiment to see how it flies. Why else would you feed it to just 3 stations.
38s show almost looks like a televised radio show. There was an emphasis on interviews when news stories weren't presented. Photos relating to news content were wallet size in my opinion. They lacked color with an emphasis on black and white I thought. No weather, sports or even fill. I was not impressed but WADL probably is severely limited.
